Listen In: How Biden Stepping Down Could Reshape AI, Tech, and Financial Services

Written by Sean Ryan | Jul 24, 2024

For our next discussion on what’s happening in Washington DC and implications for the financial sector, on July 22 we sat down with esteemed FactSet colleague Michele Lieber, Global Head of Government Affairs. Michele summarizes the presumption of Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic presidential nominee and what it could mean near term for AI. She also discusses:

  • Senator J.D. Vance’s introduction to the world stage and a shift by some policymakers on cryptocurrency regulation, M&A, and anti-trust enforcement.
  • What to watch for the remainder of the current Congress: AI, cybersecurity, banking regulation, and the US economy.
  • Potential regulatory consequences of the Supreme Court’s ruling to overturn the Chevron Deference.
  • The political trajectory of ESG/sustainability in the financial services marketplace.
  • Election implications on regulatory policy for Silicon Valley tech, fintech, and venture capital.
